Artistry, craftsmanship and love in every stitch!

A quilt party: Spiked Punch on the Longarm!!

It is such a joy for me to quilt for clients and to help them finish quilts. Last week I spent my time on a client’s quilt, made from a pattern called Spiked Punch by Tula Pink. The fabrics in it were from Amy Butler’s latest line “Glow” and some Tula Pink fabric. Here is a screen shot of the quilt mockup:

I used a Whispy Feather design by Donna Kleinke of One Song Needlearts, a fill pattern by Anita Shackelford and a curved grid fill of my own design. It was fun to place the feathers ‘behind’ the stacked bricks (something I’ve seen hand-guided quilters do) with computer-aided design and quilt it with the computer. Note, I still sat and ‘helped’ the needle to stitch in the ditch along the bricks. It is fun to fill the negative space with quilty lusciousness!!
